I think I got a little clue here. there a few problems for me: 1. the error of " not have the required cellviews or properties open for this session " from fresh Ocean or CIW is because I haven't load the top level schematic yet so it doesn't know where to start with. I found some SKILL code (like dbOpenCellViewByType ) to load the schematic and it'll be able to proceed. 2. then additional problem is, I'm still at behavioral level yet (not all at schematic view based blocks) so I need the config to be loaded before the simulator knows which one to be netlisted with. w/o doing anything else beside design("libName" "cellName" "viewName" "r") would netlisting from all schematic views, not any other behavioral models like VerilogA blocks. so the simulation runs weird to me at the first glance. so, now my question is how I can guide Ocean to netlist according to the "config" view, not assuming all from schematic (only the very last stage regression might be all schematics)? thanks a lot, David![]()
